The recirculation function is the easy to program and works great. The back light is also a nice touch. You can run the heat or cool to within a half degree to make it more comfortable. I had one just like it at the duplex we rented before we bought a house and loved it so much that I bought one for the house.

I had one installed in my main living area. We noticed some savings over a year period from the "old mercury" style. Now with the bedroom unit replaced, we are noticing a much more climate controlled house, especially the "hot" AZ desert summers. We like the programs can be set and adjusted for times, thus making it easier to adjust the schedules between the living and sleeping areas. We expect to save at least 4 to 5 times what the cost of the unit was to purchase.

The instructions state the recirculation feature delay can be set at 120 minutes. This was not the case. I called Braeburn, and they replaced my model 5000 with a model 5050 for free. The model 5050 allowed me to set the recirculation timer to 120 minutes. The folks at Braeburn were very nice to work with. I would definitely buy a Braeburn product again.

Works very well and nice additional features. The automatic recirculation runs the fan regularly when the cooling or heating demand is not there just to refresh the air in the house. We have two, one upstairs and the other for downstairs.

Thought this was a simple replacement for the Braeburn manual thermostat on my 3 year old furnace. weeks have gone by and this unit cannot turn the furnace on at the correct time entered, who knows what's it's doing when I'm gone all week. Simple programing but an obvious problem in the unit, I'm sending it back to the manufacture for warranty.
